Hi Joe, (and everyone else) Getting through the SPOC gate is easy (gate combination is available to all current SLAS members on the "Reserve Observatory" page on the SLAS site). However, I just checked and found the track has moved south a bit so SPOC is probably not a good option. The center line is now predicted to pass just two doors south of me so folks are welcome to come set up in front of my place (just let me know if you're coming so I can deactivate the perimeter defenses Guy sold me...). patrick On 29 Sep 2007, at 09:41, Joe Bauman wrote:
Patrick, if it's clear I would like to set up my telescope with camera. Would there be a way that I could drive close to the observatory, and not try to lug the 'scope from the parking lot on the other side of the the skateboard facility? Many thanks, Joe
